# Where's my data?

If you have any questions about where you data lives, you can always start at the [search bar](/features/search.md) at the top of the page.

Using search can quickly take you to a dataset even if you already know where it lives in your hierarchy. The search has filters which can narrow down results to a specific BI tool or type of data asset, but if you already know which tool the information you're looking for is in, you can sort through that information in different ways.

If you know you're looking for a data table or column, click the database it belongs to in the left sidebar.
